Overview

Constructs a service interface object. Each API operation is exposed as a function on service.

Service Description

AWS Price List Service API (AWS Price List Service) is a centralized and convenient way to programmatically query Amazon Web Services for services, products, and pricing information. The AWS Price List Service uses standardized product attributes such as Location, Storage Class, and Operating System, and provides prices at the SKU level. You can use the AWS Price List Service to build cost control and scenario planning tools, reconcile billing data, forecast future spend for budgeting purposes, and provide cost benefit analysis that compare your internal workloads with AWS.

Use GetServices without a service code to retrieve the service codes for all AWS services, then GetServices with a service code to retreive the attribute names for that service. After you have the service code and attribute names, you can use GetAttributeValues to see what values are available for an attribute. With the service code and an attribute name and value, you can use GetProducts to find specific products that you're interested in, such as an AmazonEC2 instance, with a Provisioned IOPS volumeType.

Service Endpoint

AWS Price List Service API provides the following two endpoints:

Sending a Request Using Pricing

var pricing = new AWS.Pricing();
pricing.describeServices(params, function (err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Locking the API Version

In order to ensure that the Pricing object uses this specific API, you can construct the object by passing the apiVersion option to the constructor:

var pricing = new AWS.Pricing({apiVersion: '2017-10-15'});

You can also set the API version globally in AWS.config.apiVersions using the pricing service identifier:

AWS.config.apiVersions = {
  pricing: '2017-10-15',
  // other service API versions
};

var pricing = new AWS.Pricing();

Version:

2017-10-15

Constructing a Pricing object

var pricing = new AWS.Pricing({apiVersion: '2017-10-15'});

Options Hash (options):

params (map) —
An optional map of parameters to bind to every request sent by this service object. For more information on bound parameters, see "Working with Services" in the Getting Started Guide.
endpoint (String) —
The endpoint URI to send requests to. The default endpoint is built from the configured region. The endpoint should be a string like 'https://{service}.{region}.amazonaws.com'.
accessKeyId (String) —
your AWS access key ID.
secretAccessKey (String) —
your AWS secret access key.
sessionToken (AWS.Credentials) —
the optional AWS session token to sign requests with.
credentials (AWS.Credentials) —
the AWS credentials to sign requests with. You can either specify this object, or specify the accessKeyId and secretAccessKey options directly.
credentialProvider (AWS.CredentialProviderChain) —
the provider chain used to resolve credentials if no static credentials property is set.
region (String) —
the region to send service requests to. See AWS.Pricing.region for more information.
maxRetries (Integer) —
the maximum amount of retries to attempt with a request. See AWS.Pricing.maxRetries for more information.
maxRedirects (Integer) —
the maximum amount of redirects to follow with a request. See AWS.Pricing.maxRedirects for more information.
sslEnabled (Boolean) —
whether to enable SSL for requests.
paramValidation (Boolean|map) —
whether input parameters should be validated against the operation description before sending the request. Defaults to true. Pass a map to enable any of the following specific validation features:
- min [Boolean] — Validates that a value meets the min constraint. This is enabled by default when paramValidation is set to true.
- max [Boolean] — Validates that a value meets the max constraint.
- pattern [Boolean] — Validates that a string value matches a regular expression.
- enum [Boolean] — Validates that a string value matches one of the allowable enum values.
computeChecksums (Boolean) —
whether to compute checksums for payload bodies when the service accepts it (currently supported in S3 only)
convertResponseTypes (Boolean) —
whether types are converted when parsing response data. Currently only supported for JSON based services. Turning this off may improve performance on large response payloads. Defaults to true.
correctClockSkew (Boolean) —
whether to apply a clock skew correction and retry requests that fail because of an skewed client clock. Defaults to false.
s3ForcePathStyle (Boolean) —
whether to force path style URLs for S3 objects.
s3BucketEndpoint (Boolean) —
whether the provided endpoint addresses an individual bucket (false if it addresses the root API endpoint). Note that setting this configuration option requires an endpoint to be provided explicitly to the service constructor.
s3DisableBodySigning (Boolean) —
whether S3 body signing should be disabled when using signature version v4. Body signing can only be disabled when using https. Defaults to true.
retryDelayOptions (map) —
A set of options to configure the retry delay on retryable errors. Currently supported options are:
- base [Integer] — The base number of milliseconds to use in the exponential backoff for operation retries. Defaults to 100 ms for all services except DynamoDB, where it defaults to 50ms.
- customBackoff [function] — A custom function that accepts a retry count and returns the amount of time to delay in milliseconds. The base option will be ignored if this option is supplied.
httpOptions (map) —
A set of options to pass to the low-level HTTP request. Currently supported options are:
- proxy [String] — the URL to proxy requests through
- agent [http.Agent, https.Agent] — the Agent object to perform HTTP requests with. Used for connection pooling. Defaults to the global agent (http.globalAgent) for non-SSL connections. Note that for SSL connections, a special Agent object is used in order to enable peer certificate verification. This feature is only available in the Node.js environment.
- connectTimeout [Integer] — Sets the socket to timeout after failing to establish a connection with the server after connectTimeout milliseconds. This timeout has no effect once a socket connection has been established.
- timeout [Integer] — Sets the socket to timeout after timeout milliseconds of inactivity on the socket. Defaults to two minutes (120000).
- xhrAsync [Boolean] — Whether the SDK will send asynchronous HTTP requests. Used in the browser environment only. Set to false to send requests synchronously. Defaults to true (async on).
- xhrWithCredentials [Boolean] — Sets the "withCredentials" property of an XMLHttpRequest object. Used in the browser environment only. Defaults to false.
apiVersion (String, Date) —
a String in YYYY-MM-DD format (or a date) that represents the latest possible API version that can be used in all services (unless overridden by apiVersions). Specify 'latest' to use the latest possible version.
apiVersions (map<String, String|Date>) —
a map of service identifiers (the lowercase service class name) with the API version to use when instantiating a service. Specify 'latest' for each individual that can use the latest available version.
logger (#write, #log) —
an object that responds to .write() (like a stream) or .log() (like the console object) in order to log information about requests
systemClockOffset (Number) —
an offset value in milliseconds to apply to all signing times. Use this to compensate for clock skew when your system may be out of sync with the service time. Note that this configuration option can only be applied to the global AWS.config object and cannot be overridden in service-specific configuration. Defaults to 0 milliseconds.
signatureVersion (String) —
the signature version to sign requests with (overriding the API configuration). Possible values are: 'v2', 'v3', 'v4'.
signatureCache (Boolean) —
whether the signature to sign requests with (overriding the API configuration) is cached. Only applies to the signature version 'v4'. Defaults to true.
dynamoDbCrc32 (Boolean) —
whether to validate the CRC32 checksum of HTTP response bodies returned by DynamoDB. Default: true.
useAccelerateEndpoint (Boolean) —
Whether to use the S3 Transfer Acceleration endpoint with the S3 service. Default: false.
clientSideMonitoring (Boolean) —
whether to collect and publish this client's performance metrics of all its API requests.
endpointDiscoveryEnabled (Boolean) —
whether to enable endpoint discovery for operations that allow optionally using an endpoint returned by the service. Defaults to 'false'
endpointCacheSize (Number) —
the size of the global cache storing endpoints from endpoint discovery operations. Once endpoint cache is created, updating this setting cannot change existing cache size. Defaults to 1000
hostPrefixEnabled (Boolean) —
whether to marshal request parameters to the prefix of hostname. Defaults to true.

Property Details

endpoint ⇒ `AWS.Endpoint` (readwrite)

Returns an Endpoint object representing the endpoint URL for service requests.

Returns:

(AWS.Endpoint) —
an Endpoint object representing the endpoint URL for service requests.

Method Details

describeServices(params = {}, callback) ⇒ `AWS.Request`

Returns the metadata for one service or a list of the metadata for all services. Use this without a service code to get the service codes for all services. Use it with a service code, such as AmazonEC2, to get information specific to that service, such as the attribute names available for that service. For example, some of the attribute names available for EC2 are volumeType, maxIopsVolume, operation, locationType, and instanceCapacity10xlarge.
